Just saw a great article in chicagomag.com discussing what is new and upcoming in the chicago restaurant scene. They had nice things to say about our new location Piccolo Sogno Due:
“Tony Priolo and Todd Stein, two of Chicago’s finest chefs, join forces in June at the sequel to Priolo’s Piccolo Sogno. The 132-seat space promises to be a paradise of branzino, tonno, polpo, and other Italian seafood; even the housemade bread will include squid ink.
This sounds refreshing, perhaps because Piccolo Sogno Due (Little Dream Two) will zig when the rest of Chicago is zagging. “It’s not a burger bar, it’s not small plates with cool beers and records, and it’s not a steak house,” says Stein (The Florentine). That does sound like a dream. A big one.”

News from chicago.eater.com
Late-breaking news: Chef Todd Stein is leaving the Florentine to serve as the executive chef at Tony Priolo‘s forthcoming Piccolo Sogno Due. He’ll remain at the Florentine through the end of April at which point he’ll also bring sous chefMark Newman, with whom he’s worked for years, with him.
“The goal is to always have your hand in the right things with the right people,” Stein told Eater. “There are no ill feelings between me and E2 [Hospitality, which owns The Florentine] and they’ve been nothing but incredible to me. When I look at my future, I want to be with Tony and (Piccolo partner) Ciro (Longobardo). This is hopefully the first of lots of things together.”
